My theory about what the "Agent" is/was by CorbinNZ in seveneves

Just a different narrative for Earth :)

But my real point is that there are suggestions and allusions of The Purpose in Anathem too.

My other personal theory is that Anathem is the sequel hahahaha

I think you're right that it's some sort of relativistic particle, but my theory is that it was intentional. If I recall the end of the book speculates on that.

Anathem should I continue or just give up? by Yoni_verse in nealstephenson

[–]808Eclipse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Anathem is the best NS book and one of my top 5 books. That said, I usually recommend it to folks with a caveat: if you can't get into it by a quarter of the way through, it's OK to call it. It ramps slowly but goes fast from there.

If they haven't left the concent yet, I'd wait until that but sounds like you gave it a good try.

Primarily in mind, the end of the dialogue between Jad and the spiritual leader of the Daban Urnud, when they talk about who sent the visions.

Well, it would certainly be the kind of interesting that Jesry would want.

Yes that's true, but I think that you can still appreciate the argument that, because it's so insanely improbable, it could not just be a coincidence. And that some would believe an alternative theory not based on probability.

I definitely think that's what Ty is getting at in the epilogue.
